But in the case of remote access it doesn't appear > that libvirt will be able to help me. Well, the ESX driver is working completely remote and should therefore be helpful. The driver only uses the VI API, which practically is SOAP, to communicate with the server. If you could describe the problem you are facing a bit more precisly, one could give you some hints about how to solve this. Ciao Max -- Träume nicht von Dein Leben: Lebe Deinen Traum!

[libvirt] [PATCH 00/15] Rewrite the QEMU monitor handling v2
by Daniel P. Berrange 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

This is an update of this series: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2009-October/msg00644.html minus the patches DV already ACKd which I've merged. The main change in this series is that I've removed the change which added a RW-lock primitive in the QEMU driver. Instead I've implemented the job condition variable idea I described here http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2009-October/msg00815.html The nice thing about this is that its actually possible to start doing timeouts of commands. This series only partially supports timeouts. A long running monitor command itself will not timeout, but if a second API call is made while someone else is using the monitor, this waiting call will timeout after 30 seconds if the monitor was not relased.

[libvirt] [PATCH] create() and destroy() support for Power Hypervisor
by Eduardo Otubo 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Hello all, This patch includes a lot of changes: * I changed all references of uuid_db to uuid_table. Bigger name, but this semantic has a better understanding. * Now we have a little control of UUID generated for each partition. It's based on a table that matches UUID with LPAR's IDs, I keep it in a file that is stored in the managed system (HMC or IVM). Even having isolated functions to manipulate this file I still need to implement a way to lock it and make the operation atomic to avoid corruptions. * The XML file used in the create() function still must be improved. I used the <disk> tag to make a work around to handle storage pools. Now I ask for some help, how do I use the <pool> tag if there is no reference to it at the virDomainDef structure? I've been told that libvirt possibly would make a mini-release this week to push some major fixes on Fedora 12. Is there a little possibility to push these new phyp features too? This would be very important for the phyp project, since this functions are not just to manage partitions but manipulate them. Any comments are always welcome.

[libvirt] Remote access and libvirtd
by Dave Bryson 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

I need to be able to access libvirt remotely. Reading through the documention is says "libvirtd should be running on the remote machine" for clarification does this mean that libvirtd needs to run *on* the remote hypervisor? Thanks, Dave

[libvirt] Add support for legacy -vmchannel option

These patches add support for the legacy qemu -vmchannel option. The following domain xml: <channel type='unix'> <source mode='bind' path='/tmp/vmchannel'/> <target type='vmchannel' deviceid='0200'/> </channel> becomes: -vmchannel di:0200,unix:/tmp/vmchannel,server,nowait I don't expect these to be merged, but I would appreciate a review. Thanks, Matt

[libvirt] Guestfwd support (round 3)
by Matthew Booth 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

This is substantially the same as the last set. I don't think I changed patches 1 and 2 at all. Patch 3 is updated to use a virBuffer as Rich Jones recommended. Patch 4 is updated slightly for the above change, and there are a couple of other trivial tidy ups in there. Patch 5 is new. QEMU's guestfwd only supports IPv4 addresses, so we check for that. Rich Jones also noted that guestfwd is specific to QEMU. If there's a good chance this same syntax might do something simililar in a different driver, I agree that changing the name would be a good idea. However, I'm not familiar enough with other hypervisors to be able to make a call on this. If nothing else does anything similar, I'd keep the QEMU name for clarity. Matt

[libvirt] [PATCH] LXC allow container to have ethN interfaces
by Ryota Ozaki 05 Nov '09

05 Nov '09

Current implementation of lxc driver creates vethN named interface(s) in the host and passes as it is to a container. The reason why it doesn't use ethN is due to the limitation that one namespace cannot have multiple iterfaces that have an identical name so that we give up creating ethN named interface in the host for the container. However, we should be able to allow the container to have ethN by changing the name after clone(CLONE_NEWNET). The patch simply does that and numberes to ethN with ascending order from zero with no concern for what vethN is named. So say if there is one interface, its name will be eth0. Note that this patch is based on top of the prior cleanup patches. --- src/lxc/lxc_container.c | 34 ++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- src/lxc/veth.c | 31 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/lxc/veth.h | 1 + 3 files changed, 56 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/lxc/lxc_container.c b/src/lxc/lxc_container.c index 2419345..97b7903 100644 --- a/src/lxc/lxc_container.c +++ b/src/lxc/lxc_container.c @@ -225,26 +225,38 @@ static int lxcContainerWaitForContinue(int control) /** - * lxcContainerEnableInterfaces: + * lxcContainerRenameAndEnableInterfaces: * @nveths: number of interfaces * @veths: interface names * - * This function will enable the interfaces for this container. + * This function will rename the interfaces to ethN + * with id ascending order from zero and enable the + * renamed interfaces for this container. * * Returns 0 on success or nonzero in case of error */ -static int lxcContainerEnableInterfaces(unsigned int nveths, - char **veths) +static int lxcContainerRenameAndEnableInterfaces(unsigned int nveths, + char **veths) { int rc = 0; unsigned int i; + char *newname = NULL; for (i = 0 ; i < nveths ; i++) { - DEBUG("Enabling %s", veths[i]); - rc = vethInterfaceUpOrDown(veths[i], 1); - if (0 != rc) { + rc = virAsprintf(&newname, "eth%d", i); + if (rc < 0) goto error_out; - } + + DEBUG("Renaming %s to %s", veths[i], newname); + rc = setInterfaceName(veths[i], newname); + if (0 != rc) + goto error_out; + + DEBUG("Enabling %s", newname); + rc = vethInterfaceUpOrDown(newname, 1); + if (0 != rc) + goto error_out; + VIR_FREE(newname); } /* enable lo device only if there were other net devices */ @@ -252,6 +264,7 @@ static int lxcContainerEnableInterfaces(unsigned int nveths, rc = vethInterfaceUpOrDown("lo", 1); error_out: + VIR_FREE(newname); return rc; } @@ -757,8 +770,9 @@ static int lxcContainerChild( void *data ) if (lxcContainerWaitForContinue(argv->monitor) < 0) return -1; - /* enable interfaces */ - if (lxcContainerEnableInterfaces(argv->nveths, argv->veths) < 0) + /* rename and enable interfaces */ + if (lxcContainerRenameAndEnableInterfaces(argv->nveths, + argv->veths) < 0) return -1; /* drop a set of root capabilities */ diff --git a/src/lxc/veth.c b/src/lxc/veth.c index 8617cf7..ede85ce 100644 --- a/src/lxc/veth.c +++ b/src/lxc/veth.c @@ -247,3 +247,34 @@ int setMacAddr(const char* iface, const char* macaddr) error_out: return rc; } + +/** + * setInterfaceName + * @iface: name of device + * @new: new name of @iface + * + * Changes the name of the given device with the + * given new name using this command: + * ip link set @iface name @new + * + * Returns 0 on success or -1 in case of error + */ +int setInterfaceName(const char* iface, const char* new) +{ + int rc = -1; + const char *argv[] = { + "ip", "link", "set", iface, "name", new, NULL + }; + int cmdResult; + + if (NULL == iface || NULL == new) { + goto error_out; + } + + rc = virRun(NULL, argv, &cmdResult); + if (0 == rc) + rc = cmdResult; + +error_out: + return rc; +} diff --git a/src/lxc/veth.h b/src/lxc/veth.h index 8f2f514..8075a5e 100644 --- a/src/lxc/veth.h +++ b/src/lxc/veth.h @@ -21,5 +21,6 @@ int vethDelete(const char* veth); int vethInterfaceUpOrDown(const char* veth, int upOrDown); int moveInterfaceToNetNs(const char *iface, int pidInNs); int setMacAddr(const char* iface, const char* macaddr); +int setInterfaceName(const char* iface, const char* new); #endif /* VETH_H */ -- 1.6.2.5
